Not sure quite where to post this(mods please move it if you think appropriate). Not a gate guard but a stained glass window; a memorial to the staff of the Radar Research Establishment at Malvern and Defford. It's at Goodrich Castle, overlooking the river Wye, between Monmouth and Ross. If I can get my act together, I'll try to post pix. There's a Halifax, Chain Home Aerials and lots of unit crests pictured.

That spot on Helvellyn will do, people will have to open their eyes and find it themselves!

There's a nice memorial just outside Brighton at Ditchling. When Richard Demetriadi was shot down in the Battle of Britain his parents bought some land there for preservation by the National Trust. You can see for miles out across the English Channel from there.http://www.bbm.org.uk/airmen/Demetriadi.htm

Is the Ditchling one at 50.90032, -0.10631? I have it added temporarily till we're sure.

Memorials and windows are certainly relevant. I started the map and FB group to record all the museums in the world that have aviation exhibits, and have expanded it to include anything that would interest aviation history enthusiasts such as myself. So, gate guards, memorials, even factory tours and planes converted to restaurants.

There are now more than 3000 sites on the map. Just over 1400 museums, and new additions have slowed way down. Gate guards are trickling in, as I have time to add them, and a few museums pop up while searching for those.

I'd like to think that the slow-down is in one way disappointing but.. realistically, it means a thorough job has been done, most things are accounted for, and pretty much only the odd, obscure, and hard-to-find remain.

Yep, I think we have pretty much all of the museums. Gate guards aren't the primary mission of the map, but it's nice to know what aviation displays are nearby when you're traveling. For example, we were planning a trip from Columbus, Ohio to Pittsburgh. I saw the John Glenn museum and ended up going there, saw a few gate guards which we ended up bypassing (I sometimes get outvoted,) and stumbled across a Cobra that is now on the map.

More than 3400 entries now on the map. Still pretty sure we have all of the museums. I've added a lot of gate guards. Filled in Japan pretty well, using the amazing lists at J-Hangarspace. Well worth checking out for museum reports, airfield histories, etc.

I'm moving on to some of the more sparsely populated areas. Can't find any in Iraq. Found a few in North Korea. Headed to central Asia and Africa.
